Memoirs

Listless

Roaming this house alone

Mistress

Why don't you let me go?

Living by candlelight on cold nights

When did

Everyone give up ghosts?

Old friends

Passed on, no longer known

Lingering longer for being gone

It's a dark, dark, dark, dark love

Valleys

Studded with bones, dotted with sheep

Burials

Nobody knows what to keep

Keep this around for a while

Memoirs

Of an anonymous priest

Records

Of all the depths he's seen

Finding their way into my hands

It's a dark, dark, dark, dark love

The Glory

A crashing wave of pain in my head

From too much

Fighting

Wake up in the tall grass all alone

Wake up and I know you're dead and gone

Drips of blood still track across the dirt

Who is that?

Who is it

Coming down the pike?

We were only flying

It don't seem like the kind of thing worth dying for

I can see you when my old heart is finally broken

I can see you when my old heart gives out

You can lock the door, I'm going to stay outside tonight

The moonlight

Gets faded

And brutal is the glory

Wake up every day and feel the same

Wake up every day and say, I'm coming around baby

Set Like a Stone

A marvelous possession comes into your hands

Its name is beauty and it's always fenced in

What a way to find protection

What a way to stay hidden from view

Set like a stone in the garden wall

Facing both ways, and I'm ready to fall

Set like a stone in the garden wall

And I feel like I'm gonna come loose

Now this game goes by the name of religion

In the convent graveyard where I last saw the virgin

There were no fireworks, no tears of blood

It was a miracle to be there at all

Set like a stone in the garden wall

Facing both ways, and I'm ready to fall

Set like a stone in the garden wall

And I feel like I'm gonna come loose
